When God Comes and Gathers His Jewels Lyrics & Chords

By Aubrey Noble, Darrin Vincent, Rhonda Vincent, Sheri Noble & Terry Herd

(G)The ceremony was (C)over

A (D)lad stood alone in (G)tears

For he had just (C)said goodbye

To the (D)one he had loved through the (G)years



He stood all alone with his (C)head bowed down

As (D)though his heart would (G)break

Then the Parson came over and (C)took his hand

And to (D)him these words he did (G)say



(G)When God comes and gathers his (C)jewels

All his (D)treasures of diamonds and (G)gold

You'll meet her up there up (C)in heaven so fair

When (D)God comes and gathers his (G)jewels



Each night when the pale moon is shining

You can see this lad all alone

With his eyes lifted toward heaven

He's repeating these words he was told
